Omron 10 Series BP 786

March 23, 2016

Received my Omron Series BP 786 last evening, so these are the very first impressions.
It seems like a user friendly device though I am still discovering the various features it comes with. This device is pretty easy to operate. Out of the box, plug in the cuff, plug it in, set the date and time, and hit start. Very straightforward and easy. The enclosed quick start instructions were very clear on how to position the cuff, etc. The display is back-lit and easy to read.
Overall, seems like a good buy.
There's just one issue though. At the time of purchase the overview on the best buy site mentioned that this unit came with a carrying case, which it did not?!

Excellent Product

The unit works great. And, it has a separate history for two (2) users. It can be used by electricity or by battery and stores 100 blood pressure readings. I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this to a friend.

Blue-tooth connectivity issue but found a solution

December 14, 2015

The blue-tooth function was extremely frustrating at first but I got it working after much trial and error. I have a Galaxy S3 running Android 4.4.2. It would "pair" without any problems but when trying to transfer readings it would consistently say that it couldn't find the bp786. I finally found another review where a guy had said that the phone cannot be connected to any other devices. I have a garmin watch that connects to my phone via blue-tooth so I turned it off to see if that would solve the problem. Once I did that the transfer worked as advertised. So... if you're phone is connected to any other blue-tooth devices, try disconnecting them if you're having issues with transfers. Overall I'm pleased with the device now that I got it working.
